the penn company are only interested in what they can get out of the club not what the club can get from them.12 months time they will sell the club out and sell to their own development company to build town houses/units on the property and want the team to play out of one of the major stadiums no brooky as that is too costly to renovate so will take the leagues option of the stadiums, council is also in on this act so they can lease to other sports. not too bad eh council gets to make profits out of a bequest that brooky be open to the public for most of the year as park space the poor bugger who bequested this would be rolling in his grave as for me after this stupid year and sacking of a club legend I have had enough. I was their first aid /docs assistant from 1966 to 1973 and this great club was part of my life,and the players and staff bled maroon & white, one of our players ,alec tennant had a problem with taking the ball with a finger, he had it removed in the off season and came back and played like the champion he was, other players of the time like fred and nick yakitch often played with injuries that players of today would be out for weeks,all these players gave more than any of these players today and they also had full time jobs to hold down, our great leaders ken arthurson, doug daley etc were the greatest of their time but knew how to handle people, that's why we were so good, and brought players to the club that wanted to play for us. As or the nrl what a bunch of soft cocks they take over the debts of the gold coast and allow them to try and sign dce luckily he woke up and backflipped the nrl will help these useless clubs instead of taking their licences off them or relocate them to another state to make this a game played in every state. mr smith is only interested in what he can get out of league and nothing else. I am sorry about this rave but after 60 years following this great team and 52 years as a member of the leagues club I think I can spit one last time as from now on I will be handing in my membership, and my hard earned will not be going to the penn pockets , I will still cheer on our team until the very end, which as stated I believe will not be too far off, max delmage thanks for what you did to keep us afloat but to the penn clan I hope a thousand birds **** on your heads and makes life hard and dirty remember you arsehole karma is bitch and she will get you.
MANLY FOREVER SIGNING OFF FOR GOOD
